About Me
***Just FYI, my small town post office in VA does not postmark mail. It is sent to a facility in Tennessee and postmarked. So the postmark date will possibly differ by a day or two from the date I marked sent :). I always mark swaps sent the day I drop the mail in the slot at the post office.
Hello! I'm a mom of 2 girls! (Hence the username). I've been married to the love of my life since Sept. 2019. I earned my M.Ed Aug 2021.
I'm a middle school algebra teacher
I'm a northerner who lives in the south, in a small town in the mountains. I miss my maryland blue crabs smothered with old bay (mm) and having the Chesapeake bay in my backyard. But I do love the quiet, small town I'm raising my family in!
Likes
Things that will always make me happy in swaps:
ā¢ pink/girly/sparkly
ā¢ anything with books on it or reading (but please not bookmarks I'm drowning in them)
ā¢ fantasy themes
ā¢ the beach, especially crabs and mermaids
ā¢ letter sticks, must include the letters s l a m f o r b y, if not all 26
ā¢ 90's themes
ā¢ washi
ā¢ double sided lined stationary
ā¢ envelopes that aren't plain white (id love decorated, handmade, etc)
ā¢ I'm a slam swapper so if you happen to have any of those, send them along!
ā¢ thinner ephemera to make slam and decorate slam covers with!
Feel free to send things not necessarily on my likes list, as long as its not from my dislikes :). I am not a picky person and am grateful for anything I receive in swap-bot swaps!
Dislikes
Anything horror, gory, vulgar, dark. I'm not a fan of starwars or anything similar. Skulls freak me out, so those are always on my please don't send me list. I don't like tea, coffee, or soda. (I know what youre thinking, what do I even drink.... water and lemonade ;) ) I am a teacher but please no teacher stickers. I have plenty! No bookmarks please, I already have 8 million.
Penpalling/swapping
I enjoy penpalling with those who write long, chatty letters :). I am also a big slam swapper!
Postage Stamp collecting!
I am trying to have a cancelled (or not!) from every country/entity that has issued postage whether it still exists or not! I currently have about 110 countries/entities out of more than 800!
Automatic hearts for any cancelled postage from any countries that are NOT USA, Canada, present day Germany, Norway, Australia, Japan, present day Republic of South Africa, Poland, India, France, Sweden, and Netherlands as I already have TONS of those (exceptions for if they are vintage/very old)
Can be still on the envelope/paper I am not picky!
Some Countries I currently do not have: (will continually change this list as I receive) Greenland, Iceland, Vietnam, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, Belize, Djibouti, Panama, El Salvador, Anguilla, Antigua, Aruba, Ivory Coast, Israel, Ireland,
No worries!
If I ever for some reason send you something that owes postage on it, please let me know right away! I don't anticipate this happening as I am OCD and weight things ten times to make sure I'm absolutely right, but things happen!
Same goes if you just don't get a swap from me or there seems to be an issue with a swap! Let me know, so we can resolve it. I am happy to resend if necessary.
Just message me if there is ever any issue!

Hey girl !!!
I just had to tell you real quickā¦ I just got your Happy Mail tonight , and ā¦ I have to be transparent here ā¦. I was LITERALLY the ā”ļøENTIRE KEYBOARDā¬ ļø āS worth of Emojis, lol. Literallyā¦ Iām reading it like ; (and I kid you not,)
āā¦šā¦š¤Ŗā¦š¤£ā¦š±ā¦.š³ā¦.š©šššā¦š„³ā¦.šā¦šā¦š¤Æā¦šā¦š„°š„°ā¦ā lololol. Legit. It happened lol.
I was SO engrossed in the letter - that ā¦ (Once again - being transparent for the sake of - wellā¦. Whatās the point of writing letters if NOT to be completely 100% real & sincere, rightā¦? Lol - I meanā¦ Pretending Life is Perfectā¦. well thatās what Instagram is for, lol; soā¦. Here goes the Next Part!! Lolā¦.
So - like I was saying, TOTALLY wrapped up in the letter; somehow DID NOT even notice ā¦. That I started bleeding š©ø on my BRAND NEW , literally NEVER BEFORE WORN, Fashion Nova 2-piece āleggings style pant & sports bra - kinda topā ā¦ well ā¦ obvi the top didnāt end up a casualty - thatād be really odd; Or maybe whoever could do THAT would just be crazy TALENTED, lol, but !
The pants in question - OF COURSE, they were NOT blackā¦. They were - in fact, a very light Grey color, and YES - they did, in fact, BLEED ALL THE WAY THRUā¦ ššš - that being said ā¦. The lack of awareness of WTF was literally going on just like ā¦. 1 1/2 feet south from where I was holding up the Letterā¦. Should be a compliment - lol ; everything was totally āPerfectā & SOOO relatable and totally RIGHT UP MY ALLEYā¦.
Enough so that it totally didnāt dampen my mood to bad - in response to the Fashion Collateral Damage, lolol. The last thing I had to mention - was ,,, for the FIRST TIME since I was in literal High School (lol) I was way too āinvestedā in the Letter to sit on it for a day or two, or to even be bothered with Mom Duties AT ALL, whatsoever - so I LITERALLY immediately started up your Response -lol- and worked on it for say ā¦. Well for about a solid 26 minutes before I was denigrated to the Kitchen to slice up a āCucumber, Grape & Tajinā snack (my girlsā fave,) lol. Just had to tell you ā¦.. !! You super inspired me too - love that - Iām going to PUT IN some serious āthe girls JUST fell deep enough into sleep that I can ACTUALLY tiptoe around without them stirringā kinda Timing / Effort into what I have planned to be heading your way soon, Okay ..!!? Youāre Awesome, seriously ! ā¤ļø
Hey! ā¤ļø Iām (also) a mommy to two daughters ā¦. And Iām looking for New Swappers (mainly Slams! But also a bit of Bags, Xslips, Decos, Lyrix, and a Cram or FB here and there ā¦!) (one of my stress relieving activity is churning out handfuls of super creative and unique slams , lolā¦.. I penpalled from the 4th grade until senior year of high school , alongside my BFF Michelle - and Slams were ALWAYS our thing, lol. But I just recently got back into letter writing - and ā¦. Sadly, most of my Pen Friends donāt swap or have any clue what a āFriendship Bookā is ā¦ [I googled āfinding a Pen Pal 2022ā and found a couple websites with great databases of User - Submitted Contacts with Biosā¦. Non-Incarcerated Personsā¦. And I found only 2 on the entirety of the sites who mentioned knowing what an FB was {besides pertaining to FaceBook lol} and - 1 of them no longer swaps because none of her current Pals doā¦! Ughā¦.. PenPalling for me was seriously an enjoyment and entertaining due to 50% Letters {Writing and Reading} and 50% Swapping! So what a DISAPPOINTMENT it was for me to get back into the swing of things ā¦. And come to find - I thought that Swapping FBs had sadly gone the way āof the DoDo Bird,ā seriously ! {lol} That was until I found this site - and originally I had thought it was the classic , standard āSwapping with PenPallingā typical Slam/FB swap - but quickly realized it was entirely something else ā¦. Only after about 2 weeks of membership on here - did I FINALLY see something related to FBsā¦ lolā¦ but since then, Iāve been trying to reach out to the odd , random Person who mentions them ā¦! Soā¦. Sorry for the ramble ! Just wanted to give you a lil backstory , lol , but Iād love to swap / write with you ā¦!? If you wanted to PM me your address - Iād gladly send the Firstā¦!? ššššā¤ļø
